How Do We Feel About Doga?

In the US, yoga has evolved from a mere fitness trend to replace aerobics as the national exercise of choice. But a new take on the centuries old practice gives us, um, paws, because the doga craze has officially hit the nation from coast to coast. Exercising with your pet is hardly new: The majority of dog owners take walks together daily. But classes now being offered in New York, Chicago, and Seattle that require owners and their dogs to meditate and stretch together take the meaning of downward dog to a whole other level. Personally, I'll admit to being more than a little obsessed with my pooch, Violet. However, even I have to draw the line at doga. Thoughts anyone?
